and put the name Henckel or Henkel
in the field 'Nachname' . You'll find many Hen(c)kel in Germany.
Many of them belong to my anchestors. They come from Wallau/Lahn
near Marburg in Hessen. I sent you their crest. I don't know
if there is any connection to the Hen(c)kel Family that comes
from Allendorf Lamda and belongs to the ancestors of Rev. Anthony
Jacob Henckel. Allendorf is not far away from Wallau ! For instance
the crest is in the following books:

The surname Henkel belonged has to the name coming out of the
Altdeutschen, that be due cultivated to the tribe Hagin, the meaning
to that: thorn shrub, Einhegung, Einfriedung, umhegter place.
The altdeutschen persons names, that were put together originally
out of two tribes, learned abridgments that were stretched then
again by Verklei-nerungsendungen. So developed from altdeutschen
full name, how Haginher, Haganrich, Haginold and other first of
all abridgments as well as Hagano, Hanno etc., out of which one
over Henkilo "Henkel " became. With respect to the letter
manner Henckel and Henkel is to be noted, predominates became
that in the older time Henckel ("ck"), and first after
about 1760 in the family standing in speech the letter form Henkel
, therefore without c, being certain. In the old churches books
of Wallau etc. both forms appear next to and to durchein-ander.

The crest of the family Henkel

The crest of the kurhessischen family Henkel shows a vertically
standing golden anchor in the red sign. On that red-gold-like
bewulsteten helmet three red roses with green stalks stand. The
helmet cover are red-golden. The details about the crest back
on the deceased bank director and captain of the country defense-artillery
Friedrich Henkel , that goes also the reception of the crest into
the Siebmacher' sche crest book 1894 caused.
